The General Director of 'Ukrposhta', Ihor Smi­lianskyi, announced the release of a stamp in honor of Oleksandr Usyk's fight with Tyson Fury.

According to Smi­lianskyi, this stamp is dedicated to the legend of Ukrainian sports, Oleksandr Usyk, and his fight with Tyson Fury. He is confident that it will find its admirers.

The symbol of the stamp is an image of Usyk, symbolizing the message that the world loves the strong, and Ukrainians are renowned for their bravery and resilience.

The General Director wrote that strength is not necessarily about muscles and physical dominance, but about character and faith. He also expressed gratitude to Usyk for becoming a symbol of unbreakability and for his victories that inspire and remind us that true strength lies in fighting for what is yours.

The stamp will be released on December 19, and part of the proceeds from the sale will go to the boxer Usyk Foundation's charity fund.

The postal set will include a sheet 'USYK The World Loves the Strong', a 'First Day' envelope, and a card. Its price will be 158 UAH.

As a reminder, Usyk met boxer Lennox Lewis in a training camp before the fight with Tyson Fury. He reported this on his Instagram.

As a reminder, before the domination of the Ukrainian heavyweight champion, the absolute champion in heavyweight was Lennox, who defeated Holyfield in 1999. A quarter of a century later, Usyk achieved the same feat by beating Tyson Fury. However, he later lost the IBF title and the absolute title.

On December 21, a rematch between Usyk and Tyson Fury will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
